Predicted Outcome
With Sandy Alcantara on the mound and Kansas City’s lineup struggling for consistency, the Marlins are in a strong position to take this matchup at home. Alcantara’s command and stamina should keep KC off the board, while the Marlins generate just enough offense against Alec Marsh. A low-scoring contest is expected, favoring Miami 4–2.
